To stimulate your child's curiosity, we introduce materials that your child can see, touch, hear, smell, manipulate. He may explore any of these materials with a partner or a small group of other children, though most of the materials are designed to be self-instructive. Since some of these materials may be too complex for younger children, we encourage them to choose materials at their own level. Once chosen, these self-instructive materials permit your child to learn independently. Independence is the foundation of self-confidence. Children's House Just providing these self-instructive Montessori-designed materials is not enough. First the child must feel comfortable enough to explore these materials. Anyone, but especially a child, feels insecure if the "rules" keep changing. So consistency and order are important for helping your child feel secure enough to take advantage of the interesting and stimulating environment.
